## ABUSE-REPORT HISTORY (evidence of registrar non-response)
----------------------------------------------------------------
Status: CLOSED — no report required.
This domain was neutralised before the abuse-report cycle could be dispatched — either
the hosting provider / registrar suspended it on their own, the DNS went dead, or the
operator abandoned the infrastructure. PhishDestroy keeps the evidence bundle on file
for audit but no formal notice was sent.

## TIMELINE

First reported:    2026-06-15 03:47:26 UTC (abuse notice filed)
Last verified:     2026-07-02 16:20:38 UTC
Neutralised:       2026-05-26 00:27:12 UTC
Current status:    taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead)

## ANALYST NARRATIVE
----------------------------------------------------------------
[Generated: 2026-06-18 16:55:54 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.]

The domain hfc-mm.sbs is identified as a generic phishing threat and is currently offline. This domain does not appear to impersonate any specific brand, but its generic phishing nature poses a risk to unsuspecting users. It is crucial to exercise caution when interacting with websites and emails that may be associated with this domain. 

 PhishDestroy identifies that hfc-mm.sbs was flagged by 4 of 95 VirusTotal vendors, indicating a moderate level of suspicion, and it is registered through NICENIC INTERNATIONAL GROUP CO., LIMITED, with an IP address of 172.67.153.179, created on May 18, 2026, and appears on 1 security blocklist. 

 Given its current offline status, the risk level is somewhat mitigated, but users should remain vigilant as the domain could potentially be revived or used in future phishing campaigns, thus it is recommended to be cautious and avoid any interactions with hfc-mm.sbs, and to keep antivirus software up to date to protect against similar threats in the future.

## EVIDENCE HASHES
----------------------------------------------------------------
Favicon MD5:       7204850560e39efe1510bdf38e09b2da
TLS cert SHA-256:      d5c4d5a569e6fbcad8448c43402da8e8c0d8c4438f8d587ea88db6ddc5fe7236

## SCORING METHODOLOGY
----------------------------------------------------------------
Composite score is NOT derived from VirusTotal alone. PhishDestroy aggregates:
  - VirusTotal positive ratio
  - Public blocklist consensus (MetaMask, ScamSniffer, OpenPhish, PhishTank, URLhaus,
    CryptoFirewall, SEAL, Polkadot, Enkrypt, Phishunt, DiscordPhishing, PhishingDB)
  - Cloaking detection (HTTP 666 or rendering delta between bot and real visitor)
  - DNS-filter consensus (Quad9, CleanBrowsing, NextDNS, AdGuard, Cloudflare, etc.)
  - AlienVault OTX pulses + Cloudflare Radar + Google Safe Browsing
  - URLScan / URLQuery verdicts
  - Brand-impersonation heuristics (DOM analysis of forms, logos, wording)
  - Known phishing-kit fingerprinting (favicon hash, JS obfuscation signatures)
  - Wallet-drainer family classification (Angel, MS, Rainbow, Pink, Inferno, ...)
  - Free-TLS vs paid-cert ratio (throwaway infrastructure signal)
  - Registrar/hosting abuse history (this registrar's track record)
  - Human researcher sign-off (operator takedown team)

A domain present in our database is ALREADY flagged. A low VT count by itself does
NOT mean the domain is safe — new scam domains routinely show 0/95 VT for their
first 7–30 days while actively draining wallets. Always cross-reference the composite
score and the individual indicators above, not just VT.
